Renal responses to renal sensory receptor activation were examined in rats after 1 and 4 wk
of common bile duct ligation (CBDL). Compared with sham-operated rats (Sham), urine and …

We tested the hypothesis that angiotensin II is likely to be mandatory for the neurogenic
sodium and volume retention in cirrhotic rats with common bile duct ligature (BDL) following …

The propensity for renal failure associated with obstructive jaundice and liver disease may
be related to enhanced vasoconstriction of the renal vascular bed with resultant decreases …

Renal responses to the activation of renal sensory receptors were examined in rats after
release of 24-h unilateral ureteral obstruction of the left kidney. The integrity of the renorenal …

Hepatic sensory systems are thought to play an important role in the response of renal nerve
activity and natriuresis to oral NaCl load. In this study, responses of renal nerve activity and …

The liver, well known for its role in metabolism, clearance and storage can also be regarded
as a sensory organ. The liver is an ideal place to monitor the quality and quantity of …

Renal sensory responses and reflex function were examined in rats 24 h after 45 min of
ischemic injury caused by unilateral renal arterial occlusion (RAO). The integrity of renal …

Chronic ligation of the common bile duct (CBDL) is dogs causes sodium retention and a
blunted natriuretic response to extracellular volume expansion (ECVE). Since increased …

Background & Aims: Tachykinins contribute to the control of gastrointestinal motility and
modulation of somatic and visceral pain. The role of neurokinin (NK) B and NK3 receptors in …

In the present study we have characterized the evolution of changes in systemic
haemodynamics (thermodilution in conscious animals) and sodium balance (metabolic …
